Being Sawyer Knight by Nicola Haken

As lead singer and guitarist of the internationally renowned Souls of the Knight, Sawyer Knight is living a life most men can only dream of. He’s surrounded by music, fame, wealth, women throwing themselves at his feet. He has everything…

Yet he has nothing.
Life as one of the world’s most sought after rock stars is tiring, oppressive and lonely. He spends every day being who the world wants him to be, who his manager tells him to be, who his mother expects him to be… all the while fighting against who he really is. Truth is, he’s used to it. He’s actually gotten pretty good at pretending… at living the lie.
Until Jake Reed, his ex-best friend and the only person who’s ever made him ‘feel’, waltzes back into his life as the band’s new head of security. Jake wants Sawyer – always has, always will. Now, he just needs to get Sawyer to admit that he feels the same…
“You will be mine, Sawyer Knight. The faster you try to run the quicker you’ll fall to your knees. Then, Sawyer… then you’ll be too weak to resist.”

Rockstar with a hiding secret not even he wants to deal with
himself. I want it and boy did I love it, so much. This wasn't my first M/M
romance, but it is one of my favorites.I loved that Nicola was about to really made you feel Jake and Sawyers
struggles, love and most of all the friendship that started it all.

I really like that Sawyer wasn’t written to be the happy, loving
life Rockstar most would think he should be. I like that he was lonely and
dealing with a lot in his head, it made him seem real. I also liked that we
really felt his journey out of the closet so to say. Jake really helps Sawyer
come out and be who he really is. I love Jake, he is strong, determined character
who knows what he wants is wasn’t afraid to grab it and kiss it. The secondary characters
are just as amazing as the main ones and I could get enough of Elle, she was
funny and the perfect best friend for Sawyer.

This novel will tug at your heart and make you cried, just
as much as you laugh. You will really feel the struggles and developments of each
characters. If you’re wanting for me to tell you how hot and sexy it was, you
will not be disappointed. It was hot and sexy, you may need extra panties with
you when you read this. If you haven’t read any M/M this would be a great one
to read as your first. If I could give this book more than 5 stars I would but
5 out of 5 stars!

“I need to talk to you,” was how I
greeted Sawyer when he opened the door to his dressing room. We had an hour to
wait before the stylists and makeup artists were available to prepare the guys
for the shoot, so they were all chilling back in their respective dressing
suites.

“Um,’kay,” he said nervously,
backing into the room. I followed him inside and then turned back to the door,
locking it behind me. That move caused his Adam’s apple to bulge as he
swallowed nervously. “W-what’s up?”

“You looked beautiful on that
stage,” I said, advancing towards him. Instinctively he backed away, but I kept
moving forward until he was pressed against the wall. “My dick was so hard for
you, Sawyer. It’s been hard for you since I got here.”

I flattened my palm against his
heaving chest and his own hand quickly reached up to move it away, but instead
it lingered, his fingers curling around my own.

“Please, Jake. You’re messing with
my head. I can’t take it much longer. You were my best friend and I’ve missed
that. Please don’t fuck that up.”

“But I don’t want to be your
friend, Sawyer. I want to be your everything.”

“You can’t be serious. You don’t
even know me anymore.” His voice was faltering. I was winning.

“I do know you. I know you better than anyone. I know you better than
you know yourself. If I didn’t, how would I know that you want me to do this?”
I breathed, sliding my hand down his chest until it reached the waistband of
his jeans. He swallowed forcefully and then opened his mouth, to protest I
assumed, but when my hand dipped inside and took hold of his cock, all that
came out was a moan.

The risk I was taking was either
going to be a monumental breakthrough, or the biggest mistake of my life.

I'm a writer of New Adult, contemporary and m/m erotic romance. I'm a married mum of four (six if you include the dogs!) from the UK and can usually be found with a Kindle or MacBook in front of my face, or carrying out housewife/mother/all round slave duties. I'm a little bit mental and a whole lot of crazy with bordering on unhealthy addictions to tattoos, Pepsi Max and the CockyBoys! ;-)

About Me

In order to do something great you will be misunderstood to
many, that’s where I am in life. Doing great things that others don’t understand,
I am doing what I love and makes me happy.

I am Jessica or Jessie for short, I am a fearless, and soft
spoken and outgoing Scorpio who tells the truth even if my voice shakes. I have a
blog that is all about my love for reading and books. I read more than my librarian
and she finds that amazing. I am a writer because I have this need to get the
stories out of my head for others to enjoy. I see myself as a chef, but really am
just a home cook, trying out really hard recipes, failing most of the time, but
it’s all about that one time it turns out amazing. My friends see me as supportive, loyal and
selfless, but they have to say things like that. I see myself as hopeful,
caring and compassionate. You will never see me without a book in my hand or
somewhere close by, you never know when you will have a few minutes to read; I take
every moment I can. I would like to say I
am a lover not a fighter, but that would be a lie. I will fight for what I feel
is important or someone I love, which makes me a little of both.

“You have the freedom to be yourself, you true self, here
and now, and nothing can stand in your way” – Richard Bach

That’s I what I try to do all the time, be my true self. The
nerdy, strong, misunderstood girl that I am.
